Day 9 Diversity


This is a banana leaf wrap for Quat which lots of Yemeni and Somali people around here chew - it looks like privet and acts a bit like a mild speed - you chew it and pack a big lump of it in the corner of your mouth. looking at it one way it's like natural red bull  looking at it another it's a cultural practice.  I think the banana leaves look like Andy Goldworthy sculptures but I'm interested to see what they look like when they are squashed.
